Merit Circle DAO Chooses Avalanche for Speed and Security in Launching Beam Gaming Subnet
Merit Circle DAO has recently announced the launch of Beam, an Avalanche Subnet aimed at streamlining Web3 gaming development and gameplay. Beam will offer existing Merit Circle products and extensive new gaming-focused tooling, an NFT marketplace, and three new games. The goal of the subnet is to support dozens of Avalanche games while being an independent, sovereign network that caters to gamers and game developers.
The three games that will be available on Beam include Trial Xtreme, Walker World, and Hash Rush. Trial Xtreme is a racing game with over 250 million worldwide downloads and will be launched by Gameplay Galaxy, a studio that aims to develop a decentralized competitive gaming ecosystem, in the future.
Walker World, powered by Unreal Engine 5, is a massive open-world experience where players and creators can come together to own and build on their land, cooperate in heated game modes, and explore a vast universe filled with shared rewards. Hash Rush is a Web3 MMORTS game where players can explore the vastness of the Hermeian Galaxy, build a base, marshal resources, enhance their strategies by recruiting heroes, and attempt to defeat enemies in epic battles.
Beam will also have offerings allowing players to do more with their gaming assets and developers to launch games more seamlessly. For instance, an AMM will allow players to swap tokens linked to Beam dApps. Sphere, an NFT marketplace that devs can lego into their games, will enable players to buy in-game assets. Beam will also support native Avalanche SDKs, APIs, wallets, bridges, and analytics tools.
Merit Circle has chosen Avalanche for its speed, quick settlement, security, and the open-ended possibilities that Subnets unlock for games and game developers. Brandon Aaskov, CTO Merit Circle DAO, stated that “Beam is meant for gamers and game developers alike: to take away the complexity and still offer true ownership and easy control of that ownership.”
Beam will be an exciting addition to the world of Web3 gaming, with its extensive tooling, NFT marketplace, and support for multiple games. Merit Circle plans to continue developing the subnet to support even more games and enhance the gaming experience for players and developers alike. More information on Beam and its offerings will be available soon.
